I hope it's a double knockout with Lashley and Sapp. It will be easier to see how good Lashley is when he is fighting guys who are as strong as him.

That's why I want to see Lashley and Brock. Brock is as strong if not stronger. Steroid is a unique type of genetic freak in the strength department. But, Brock might actually have that over him! All I know is I've seen Brock F-5 Big Show a bunch of times and I've seen Lashley hold the Big Show up for a body slam for about 5 seconds which is unprecedented with a, at the time, 520lbs man! It's so funny how Hogan's bodyslam on Andre made history and if you look back it was the most pathetic bodyslam ever. Cena's millions of FUs on Khali and Big Show have been more impressive

I think Brock would fuck up Steroid right now. Brocks taking out Randy Cotoure and pretty much has the whole UFC scared of him. Except Mir but Mir strikes me as to stupid/arrogant/cocky to be scared. Roid Lashley looks like a guy that attends his classes and pays attention but no one is really throwing but new kids and over the hills. Kind of like Kimbo Slice except I don't really want a carrier ending injury on Bobby.

I actually think Steroid could kick Kimbo's ass.
I also agree that Brock should be able to fuck McNiggy's world up when it comes down to it

Bobby Lashley's TNA future is still up in the air, with no contract being signed. In recent MMA interviews Lashley claims he won't be signing anything until after he fights Bob Sapp later this month.
One has to wonder why TNA brought him out if nothing was set in stone. Lets hope it isn't another "Hulk Hogan tried to come to TNA and I took TNA to Hulk hogan" clip.

I really want to see Steroid and Brock now. Just like in WWE it's like Steroid really is the new Black Lesnar again, just in MMA this time. It's time for Brock to put an end to this. Don't get me wrong, I'd prefer a good fight. I like Steroid much better as a serios MMA guy. He doesn't need to be cool and have charisma. He simply just need to be an ass kicker and win fights

Well it's now official!
After appearing briefly for TNA, former ECW Champion Bobby Lashley's run stopped due to failure to secure a contract. Committed to his mixed martial arts career, details needed to be hammered out in order to assure that Lashley could remain focused on fighting while still making a real contribution to TNA.
The deal is finally done.
Lashley announced this week that he has finally signed with TNA Wrestling and will begin his tenure at the Victory Road pay-per-view. Lashley is also booked for next week's iMPACT! Tapings.
"I still wanted to wrestle but I wanted to fight, so it was like, how do you do both? I spoke with Dixie Carter, the owner of TNA and she was really, really helpful and she wanted to give me an opportunity to help my career and an opportunity to give back to wrestling," said Lashley to ESPN Radio.

I can see UFC at least attempting to capitalize on this for cross marketing. In the end UFC doesn't want to be looked at as wrestling associated but if they think a fighter is good and he's also well known at being good at something physical other than fighting, it can't hurt the sport to bring him in

Dana won't let people fight if it makes his company look bad, or if he thinks it will. Hes a passionate business owner. I think that might put blinders on him sometimes.

I have come to realize Dana White has a lot of class and pride the more years I've gotten to know him on tv. He's not a sell out. He'll simply give a guy a shot if he's a great fighter. He doesn't care where the guy came from. If anything, ex WWE stars being good fighters is a bonus and good for publicity. That's all I was getting at. But I respect Dana
